Special Methods

• bool __eq__ (self, QSslKey key)
• bool __ne__ (self, QSslKey key)

QSslKey.__init__ (self)

Constructs a null key.

See also isNull().

QSslKey.__init__ (self, QByteArray encoded, QSsl.KeyAlgorithm algorithm, QSsl.EncodingFormat encoding = QSsl.Pem, QSsl.KeyType type = QSsl.PrivateKey, QByteArray passPhrase = QByteArray())

Constructs a QSslKey by decoding the string in the byte array encoded using a specified algorithm and encoding format. If the encoded key is encrypted, passPhrase is used to decrypt it. type specifies whether the key is public or private.

After construction, use isNull() to check if encoded contained a valid key.

QSslKey.__init__ (self, QIODevice device, QSsl.KeyAlgorithm algorithm, QSsl.EncodingFormat encoding = QSsl.Pem, QSsl.KeyType type = QSsl.PrivateKey, QByteArray passPhrase = QByteArray())

Constructs a QSslKey by reading and decoding data from a device using a specified algorithm and encoding format. If the encoded key is encrypted, passPhrase is used to decrypt it. type specifies whether the key is public or private.

After construction, use isNull() to check if device provided a valid key.

QSslKey.__init__ (self, QSslKey other)

Constructs an identical copy of other.

QSsl.KeyAlgorithm QSslKey.algorithm (self)

Returns the key algorithm.

QSslKey.clear (self)

Clears the contents of this key, making it a null key.

See also isNull().

int QSslKey.handle (self)

Returns a pointer to the native key handle, if it is available; otherwise a null pointer is returned.

bool QSslKey.isNull (self)

Returns true if this is a null key; otherwise false.

See also clear().

int QSslKey.length (self)

Returns the length of the key in bits, or -1 if the key is null.

QByteArray QSslKey.toDer (self, QByteArray passPhrase = QByteArray())

Returns the key in DER encoding. The result is encrypted with passPhrase if the key is a private key and passPhrase is non-empty.

QByteArray QSslKey.toPem (self, QByteArray passPhrase = QByteArray())

Returns the key in PEM encoding. The result is encrypted with passPhrase if the key is a private key and passPhrase is non-empty.

QSsl.KeyType QSslKey.type (self)

Returns the type of the key (i.e., PublicKey or PrivateKey).

bool QSslKey.__eq__ (self, QSslKey key)

bool QSslKey.__ne__ (self, QSslKey key)
